If you are scared on survival mode then do what i say!!! So make a survival world and pause it. Then you want to click on options. Find your difficulty bar and put it all the way down. Now when you play on your survival acounts there will be no monsters and you can collect your resources safely. The only animals with your difficulty down are pigs, cows, sheep, and chickens. If you want wolves you'll need to put your difficulty up and kill a skeleton so you can get a doggy!
